My last Ubuntu install got destroyed by some package update and I was unable to fix it after hours and hours of futsing within it (I think it was related to graphics drivers, but I can't say 100%). This made me put it aside again since I just don't have time to deal with it and really just wanted something simple and reliable on my laptop. It's annoying because, aside from some games, I can already pretty much do anything I need to do on Linux just fine, but I won't risk issues like that taking down my whole setup.
